MMM reader makes perfect miniature of his Auto-Trail motorhome
The coronavirus lockdown has left many of us with extra time to dedicate to the things we love — be that spending quality time with immediate family, tinkering with our motorhomes on our driveways, or simply kicking back and reading our favourite motorhome magazines (you can download our latest issue here, by the way!)
But one MMM reader missed his motorhome so much, he decided to create a perfect miniature...
Reader Karl Fisher explained: "Thanks to Covid-19, I like many others have been very disappointed not to be able to go out and about in our Auto-Trail Tracker EKS. However, to remind me of what I am missing I have spent the time making a 1:10th scale model of it. I have to say this one's a lot easier to park!
"This model is totally scratch built from mainly Balsa wood and 2mm sheet MDF. The only bits bought in were the wheels, driver/passenger seats, and a couple of the kitchen accessories that were sourced from dolls' house sites.
"If you look closely you will see several household items that have been adapted, for example the shower doors are made from an empty plastic water bottle."
Amazing, Karl!
